  • El ritmo es un poco mas rápido pero te quedo genial.

  • you're not like tippical begginers, you're actually good :D i'm playing classical guitar as well, but i haven't learn this yet :)

  • Beautiful ! nice tone ! what tuning did you use for this guitar?

  • @SkyHeavenMaranatha. Thanks. Standard tuning.

  • great job just its not anonymous its by: antonio gonzales

  • @54jords I've read it's called romance anonimo because it's been played by many people but no-one really knows where it originated possibly to avoid copywriting fees....idk if it's true but that's what someone else had written in their description of this cover.

  • @s0medudeonline This is the Romance Anónimo becouse in my land, Spain, time ago in the Mediaval Age there was musicians "juglares" that travel from a town to other, and other musicians copy their songs. So, when a musicians started to write the song in paper, they didn´t know who writed the song, so they write that as an Anonymus (Anónimo). song.

    The same thing occurs with spanish mediaval books, and too many songs and poetic ~

    I know it becouse I´m from Spain xD

  • @fredy5984 Student. Beginner. Thanks for watching.

    UNAS LECCIONES DE INGLES NO TE VENDRIAN MAL, LA CHAVA EN LA DESCRIPCION DICE QUE ES UNA ESTUDIANTE PRINCIPIANTE. GRACIAS POR MIRAR. ADEMAS NO CREO QUE TU NUNCA TE HAYAS EQUIVOCADO DN PERFECTO ......UN POCO DE HUMILDAD NO TE VENDRIAN NADA BIEN. SALUDOS

  • easy

  • todos saben que anonimo es un escritor muy famoso y ahora toca guitarra que gran tipo

  • beauty

  • the first half of this piece (minor half) is quite easy and most of it can be learned within weeks of starting the guitar. you can probably get it to sound fairly decent within the first month!! the second half (major half) is quite a bit more challenging and is maybe more like a first year piece.

    just thought I'd make my comment

  • @flyingmolamola Are you serious? I´ve learnt the first half in two hours and the second the next day, probably and hour or two, and I´m able to play it kinda nice. I ain´t saying I´m genius, just that it looks harder than it really is. Really a "best buy" - lot of sweet sound for almost no effort. Btw I´ve never played classic before. Wish you a good day.

  • This piece is commonly considered to be easy. It isn't. 

  • :)

  • Zzzzzzzz.....me duermo. Te falta un poco de práctica....

  • I love to watch and hear a woman playing guitar.

    =)

  • Me encanta el ritmo pausado con el que tocas en esta y en otras composiciones que te he oído.

    Saludos desde La Coruña (España)

  • Congratulations!

  • q lindo...

  • for a beginner that is really good! im doing the same thing and with practice we will do it faster

  • Dan dich the ma cung dang len!

  • Well played! I'm a self taught classical guitarist myself, trying to learn Romanza on my own. I was having trouble with one part, I think I'll try it your way and see how it works. Thanks for posting!

  • Beautiful.

  • Nicely done . Very good and enjoyable. 

  • you are really good, how many years to learn it!

    i like at this sloww rate! and its being played with emotions

  • OK it might not be technically perfect but the phrasing is superb.

  • can anyone comment the mood of this piece?

    it'll be deeply appreciated.

  • ´Cool!

  • You are so pretty and cute, and you play guitar real good......wish I could meet you! but I live much to far away!

  • que guitarra es esa?

  • very nice bttr thn i evr culd u missed a lil or u learned it diff but wow techniqe nd tone very well :D

  • Bonita interpretacion, agradable sonido y se ve que falta mas practica, demas esta decir que esta es una pieza bastante dificil de interpretar. Pero bueno, por la fecha del video ya debe estar sonando mucho mejor. Ojala hayas seguido practicando.

    Atte. Jose Antonio

  • lovely guitar girl XD

  • That is how u are supposed to play Spanish Romance. Kudos to you for being a beginner at that level.

  • beginner?? she's beginner..damn.. well I've gotta say thats pretty damn advanced for a beginner..most of the ppl here talking crap can't even play this beginner song thn if they think this isn't good...

  • This is bad playing and not becouse it's slow it's becouse it realy fucking sucks. If you say otherwise you think with your penis.

  • @tzoche

    If you had a brain, you would be quite dangerous. You might also be able to spell correctly.

    Did it ever dawn on you, that this might be some years old - when Julie was a beginner?

    I suspect not.

    How can you get to 24 y/o and still be a complete arsehole?

  • @Gangl

  • @Gangly1 I have nothing with beginners, but people can't go around posting beginner videos and expecting to get big rating. This video got a big number of views just becouse the performer is a women and so we get to my original statement: men think with their penis.

  • @tzoche Mmmm...

    So, Julie posted this (over 2 years ago) as a beginner; expecting to get +200K views??

    I think not.

    You may well have nothing against beginners; but you certainly have a problem with women.

    I hope your "P" grows one day; dinosaur.

  • I love the pace of this version, I think it's often played too fast and that doesn't suit such a romantic piece of music... You're doing it beautifully!

  • hermoso

  • Well this is really good, and everyone has different opinions, some think it sound better slow, others think fast... Really is how you like it. Keep up the excellent work 5/5

  • awesome girl

  • mamasiiiita....

  • Very nice! Im trying to learn this piece.

  • Here is like but next time...practice the rytam and show emotions on your face

  • Here is like but next time..show emotions on your face, becouse its realy important thing in this song

  • Here is like but next time..show emotions on your face, becouse its realy important thing in this song :)

  • Awesome! Gracias por subir este video. Thanks a lot.

  • definitely a beginner's song. played well though. fluid. flowing. not too many breaks. don't put the guitar down my friend. :)

  • @guitardaddy6

    Nice comment.

    But you are 2 years too late.

    Take a look at her now and be humbled...my friend.

  • just so so beautiful, honestly...

    my kind of music/melody

  • your guitar sounds like a piano hehe nice song

  • You have to play faster, Romance isn't a slow song.

  • OI, Julie!! Não sabia que escrevias em portugês, descobri agora... Seus vídeos são muito bons, vou mostrar pra minha filha de 16 anos que está se interessando por clássicos. Inclusive o nome dela é Julia. Aproveito para te perguntar se vc pode me enviar a partitura de "Italiana, Anonymous, Italian Renaissance" para o meu e-mail: artesom57@yahoo.com.br

    Dá uma olhada nos meus vídeos, toco alguns choros e sambas... Um beijo e sucesso!!!!

  • I feel Romance. Thanks.

  • Браво !!!

  • wow

  • Philippino? I am here in Cebu and they make some of the best guitars around...and boy can some of the guys play it well out here!

    Lovely rendition though.

    Salamat :D

  • I PLAY THIS IN NEW ORLEANS ALL THE TIME......THIS RENDITION IS SMOOTH AND I WISH YOU COME TO NEW ORLEANS !!!

  • mi cancion favorita para tocar en mi lucia..=P... t salio chevere.. felicitaciones!

  • Good piece, well played ^^

    Just pay attention to the litle finger, it's tense ;P

    Cheers from Portugal

  • i think this is a good speed. most people play this piece WAY too fast. BTW i thought the composer of this piece was never known.....

  • to slowly

  • Well my friends, Narciso Yepes composed this piece. It's not Alirio Diaz!!! Give the honor to Yepes who is already in his cold grave!!!

  • Thanks for filming this so well, I can ditermine the finger placements, and by watching your video I have perfected this. Thank you!

  • Haha ^^ this was the first one I used to play at my guitar class

  • Sounds nice. Very well done.

  • It's by an anonymous author, not by Alirio Diaz. Maybe Diaz could have written any fingering for it, but not the tune itsself.

  • The original version is much more faster. I know to play it ^^

  • is not from an anonimous composer, lol, the name of the song is "Romance anonimo" (anonimous romance), the composer is Alirio Díaz, and he was born in Venezuela

  • Are you sure Alirio Diaz wrote the tune? I hope you're right - it's truly classic. I was sitting next to him 5 years ago at a talk given by John Williams in London - it's great to think that Alirio wrote this, how sure are you?

  • its from a venezuelan composer, Alirio Diaz, is not from an anonimus, lol, that is the name of the song "romance Anónimo". Try to play this a little fast

  • little faster and more dynamic needed anyway its good

  • You are on the right track... Carry on and good luck to you in your Guitar studies.

  • where can i take classes to learn how to play this???

  • I love this song and I love to see a pretty lady play it even more ; )

  • good one

    but a bit slow

    anyway don´t take my comment

    I´m a beginner

    I can play that too

  • excelente

  • simpatica interpretacion! un 10

  • Italiano styling and Heart-felt.....Bella

  • yo do it really good

  • romance is narciso yepes composition !!!

  • it's an anonymous composition from the good old days..yepes played it beautifully though.. check out Christopher Parkening's version sometime too - it's beautiful... Nice work Madam

  • No it's not composed by Narciso Yepes. It's a 'compose animous', wich means that the the composer is not known. Narciso never staited that it is his song.

  • Very nice, you made those stretches in the E Maj. section well, especially for a beginner. I've been playing my whole life and I have trouble with the stretches sometimes. Bravo!

  • I think it is too complicated for your level. Try to play easier pieces i.e. etudes. You are on a good way, but you need to practice a lot more.

    good efforts

  • here is my opionion its good but it really sounds better if it goes a bit faster the bass line goes much better

  • Good effort!!

    I myself am a beginner, or aspire to be one, and I fond your tempo to be stable and accurate. No need for speed if the sounds is good. And I find your playing a good guide to help me pick up this piece myself.

    Congratulations!!

  • really great... thanks... finally someone who plays it slow and mesmerizing... Some people play this song WAY TO FAST and its not meant to be that way

  • tocas bien!!!

  • omg beautiful

  • OMG, you have been playing for as long as me, and Im still stuck struggling with Florian Lambert Danse Des Iles....well done you, I am very envious ....

  • Well done, Im a student begginer too, I wish I could play this as well as you can, Im still stuck on Florian Lamberts Dans Des Iles..

  • im learning this one right now working on the second part

  • amator

  • yes.... its true !!! terrible

  • @Slimshadyfcb read it...she is beginner..atleast she has some guts to post it...you discouraging asshole!

  • @amirr84

    i'm with you

    this girl is good

    and the negative commenters are fuckers

  • julie,very impressive to play to that standard if im correct within 6 months of taking up classical guitar!... that piece is a grade 5 exam standard here in ireland anyway....you obviously have exceptional natural ability ... love listening to you

  • very beautiful, like a calm river thinking about yourself.

  • merci

  • eres muy bonita, y tocas la guitarra muy bien.

  • AMAZING!!!

  • nice!!!!

  • this was one of the recent things I learnt.

    You're very good.. on a whole it flowed pretty well.

  • It's slow but it has perfect tempo and pace.

  • Olá Julie,tenho um violão igualzinho esse seu,,o meu é de 2004,,e esse seu q ano é,,onde vc ta morando agora?

    Obrigada,

    Julie

  • Encantado,,usted no és brasileira?,,perdoname,,gracia­s por su respuesta,yo no hablo español muy bien.

    -SP

  • tht was really good, i'm a begginer as well, mostly self taught, i want to learn this but as always am afraid, but seeing u has inspired me, knowing ur a begginer as well, thx :)

  • that was fantastic.

  • maaann!! too slow it's 3/4 time<

  • nicw. The next step is to play it with the bass notes, I can't do it yet either.

  • nice touch

    5 stars

  • 5 stars. Very well done Julie.

  • wow a very nice play ms julie...u

  • this is my favorito.

    hi auntie.

  • You're sweet! And your guitar playing is sweet too!

    Greetings

  • You got the tempo spot on. And you made the melody sit beautifully above the accompaniment. 83,000 views, wow ... you're a phenomenon Julie :-) x

  • I posted this too... not 1/3 as goos as yours!! luv it <3

  • great job! keep it up

  • What can I say?I thing you play a little slow but I practis this song and a know how hard it is play in real time:)sorry about my english:)one more thing very good video

  • not everything has to be played lightning fast you idiots! This girl plays it great.

  • is so fu...ing slow!!!! you suck!!!!!

  • Fast does not equal good. Accurate equals good. She did very well. Also, she was able to keep time nearly perfectly. Take your hate somewhere else.

  • a little bit to slow, but nice

  • its like slow motin...but its reqally emotion ful and nice!! good job!

  • nice work but needs a little bit of more speed

    keep it up

  • Really Fun for Comparison.Bravo Julie for you Hard Work and Discipline over the past few years.

    555 Stars for your dedication to the Guitar.

  • bravo bravo myfriend

  • Gracias a vos para tocar tan bien !!

  • very nice an beautiful

  • Beautiful song, there is a version of it in swedish, also very beautiful. It's called "du ar den enda"

    :)

  • Beautiful playing... is it slow?

    well, she wants to play her version...

    And i'm sure that, she continuous studying and practicing... because in her tags: beginner student.

    Very beautiful video.

  • lo bueno s q saves XD sigue asi...

  • muy bien, no se cuanto tengas tocando pero sigue practicando ^^

  • beautiful.

  • yes it must be much faster and with more feeling

  • a matter of opinion... This is a trad, and there is no right or wrong way to interpret it :)

  • it 'must be'?

    Bullcrap.

    This is one of the best versions I've seen.

    She's got a few 'imperfect' notes in there, but that's probably just because the frets on her guitar are too low (like most classical guitars). Her pacing is deliberate and delightful.

  • you ever thought about someone just starting guitar?

  • voce toca muito bem...........

    Parabéns.

  • very very slow bad!

  • pues muy bonita obra, pero le falytan bastantes detalles... por ejemplo el dedo indide en la mano derecha esta practicamente volando, por todo lo demas esta bien

  • very slow...... and the name of the song is "Romance anonimo" this song has a composer, his name is Narciso yepes...

  • i think it is composed by antonio rubira.

    Bad execution btw. very slow

  • Romance is by anonimo

  • wow impressive piece i just discovered , Like a lot keep it up ;)...Made a fan outa me

    Dene

  • Why did you watch this, Dene? This is yucky!

    Thanks anyway,

    Julie

  • very nice!

    This one is definately on my "to learn" list

    thanks for sharing

  • Very nice! You know, this romance reminds me a Ukrainian folk song called "Nich yaka misyachna." Check it out here, on YouTube: watch?v=YwV4p6mFZ_M

  • BEAUTIFUL PLAYING! it made me want to drift away into the warm,midnight air!~I'm not joking. heheh

  • beautiful french song julie, that is called "jeux interdits" you play it very nicely

    THanks a lot for posting

    Chris

  • nice job,have you checked out the john clarke version?

  • Thanks, jonnyasprin. Will check Clarke's version.

  • wow, I hadn't seen this one before. Your playing has come a very long way in just a couple of years.

  • buenisimo!

  • nice playing to me, despite some others envyous comms, nobody should be saying a big shot of himself, just share our things. to me nicely play, and good expression and pacing. :)

  • yeah with that nick name, I bet all sound a bit slow to you! hehehe

  • Hi Julie, I think this is going to be my first project. Seems straight forward and not too complicated. Any guidance?

  • Sorry, Jeff. I'm the wrong person to ask for guidance, but I can share with you what my teacher suggested when I was learning this: to use rest stroke for the melody. Hope that helps.

  • this is one of the first songs i ever learned. it's quick to learn and not too difficult, as well as very rewarding when you finally nail it. i strongly suggest giving it a go.

  • I´d have to differ from the rest of you all.. i dont think she playes it any good..

    i should put a vid up here where I play it.. Yeah, im gonna do that soon..

  • You appear to be forgetting this was posted over 2 years ago, my friend. She had only been playing a matter of months at the time.

    As such, it a performance worthy of praise.

    Look at her latest posts and be humbled, dear boy!

  • aláa! creo que de la gente que sube videos en Youtube es la mejor que he visto...o por lo menos la que más me ha llegado! Sigue adelante y no lo dejes! un beso!

  • wow! .. its vEry NicE!!

  • Una pieza dulce, igual que vos!

    ;)

    Besos Julie!

  • She plays that as a romance and i think the speed is really correct for that.Never stress in a romance ,cool!
